The suggestion of testing combinations of wget, curl and lynx with a few different user agents was more than I had time for then, but I haven't given up. I tried the above setup 3 ways. It doesn't help. With Firefox user agent and proxy entered With iE user agent and proxy entered With iE user agent and use iE settings selected Setup does not ask for username and password. Wget needs those and gets them from .wgetrc or .bashrc. Logs are below. The first 2 are very similar. 3rd is a little different. I also re-verified wget still works with the same 2 user agents (or no user agent). $ cat setup.log.full-proxy-ff-ua ; echo ; cat setup.log.full-proxy-ie-ua ; echo ; cat setup.log.full-iesettings-ie-ua 2017/05/26 10:23:15 Starting cygwin install, version 2.878-8-gee3cea 2017/05/26 10:23:15 User has NO backup/restore rights 2017/05/26 10:23:15 Current Directory: E:\cygwin64-mirror\ftwin\mirrors.kernel.org\sourceware\cygwin 2017/05/26 10:23:15 Could not open Service control manager 2017/05/26 10:23:22 source: network install 2017/05/26 10:23:25 root: E:\cygwin64-3 user 2017/05/26 10:23:27 Selected local directory: E:\cygwin64-mirror\ftwin\mirrors.kernel.org\sourceware\cygwin 2017/05/26 10:23:30 net: Proxy Cached mirror list unavailable Defaulting to empty mirror list 2017/05/26 10:23:32 site: http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/ 2017/05/26 10:23:32 mbox note: Unable to get setup from INSTALLED.DB version 3 2017/05/26 10:23:36 Ending cygwin install 2017/05/26 10:25:28 Starting cygwin install, version 2.878-8-gee3cea 2017/05/26 10:25:28 User has NO backup/restore rights 2017/05/26 10:25:28 Current Directory: E:\cygwin64-mirror\ftwin\mirrors.kernel.org\sourceware\cygwin 2017/05/26 10:25:28 Could not open Service control manager 2017/05/26 10:25:31 source: network install 2017/05/26 10:25:32 root: E:\cygwin64-3 user 2017/05/26 10:25:33 Selected local directory: E:\cygwin64-mirror\ftwin\mirrors.kernel.org\sourceware\cygwin 2017/05/26 10:25:39 net: Proxy Cached mirror list unavailable Defaulting to empty mirror list 2017/05/26 10:25:40 site: http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/ 2017/05/26 10:25:40 mbox note: Unable to get setup from INSTALLED.DB version 3 2017/05/26 10:25:43 Ending cygwin install 2017/05/26 10:27:07 Starting cygwin install, version 2.878-8-gee3cea 2017/05/26 10:27:07 User has NO backup/restore rights 2017/05/26 10:27:07 Current Directory: E:\cygwin64-mirror\ftwin\mirrors.kernel.org\sourceware\cygwin 2017/05/26 10:27:07 Could not open Service control manager 2017/05/26 10:27:10 source: network install 2017/05/26 10:27:11 root: E:\cygwin64-3 user 2017/05/26 10:27:12 Selected local directory: E:\cygwin64-mirror\ftwin\mirrors.kernel.org\sourceware\cygwin 2017/05/26 10:27:15 net: IE5 Cached mirror list unavailable 2017/05/26 10:27:15 HTTP status 403 fetching http://cygwin.com/mirrors.lst Defaulting to empty mirror list 2017/05/26 10:27:16 site: http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/ 2017/05/26 10:27:16 HTTP status 403 fetching http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/x86_64/setup.xz.sig 2017/05/26 10:27:16 HTTP status 403 fetching http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/x86_64/setup.xz 2017/05/26 10:27:16 HTTP status 403 fetching http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/x86_64/setup.bz2.sig 2017/05/26 10:27:16 HTTP status 403 fetching http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/x86_64/setup.bz2 2017/05/26 10:27:16 HTTP status 403 fetching http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/x86_64/setup.ini.sig 2017/05/26 10:27:16 HTTP status 403 fetching http://mirrors.kernel.org/sourceware/cygwin/x86_64/setup.ini 2017/05/26 10:27:16 mbox note: Unable to get setup from INSTALLED.DB version 3 2017/05/26 10:27:22 Ending cygwin install -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
